Are your kids back in school?
The schools here started on Wednesday. Michelle had to start on Monday.
Now she's longing for Christmas break. :santa:

Sounds Christmas perfect (with the lights of course).

We had some 20 years ago. (Boy, that makes me sound old)
Not sure where they are now. Probably in one of the Christmas totes in the attic we're saving for the kids. :D

It's very cool here today also. At 11:00 it is cloudy and 76 degrees.
With the Christmas music playing in the living room, I'm in the mood also.

Off to my vision center for my last scheduled post-op exam on my right eye. They will be dilating both eyes and measuring them for an approximate diagnosis for glasses. I think it will be a few weeks before they order my prescription for either contacts or glasses. So I will be away for several hours and dilated eyes mean I cannot see well for more hours. Make it a great Friday my Christmas friends. :D

Since my sister drove me to eye appointment, we celebrated with lunch at Longmore Steak house. I ate a Bacon Cheeseburger and we split a slice of chocolate mouse cake. I am not checking my glucosr --
:wink: -- but salads/veggies all weekend.

Then we were across the street from Hobby Lobby!! I celebrated with 4 snowy word ornaments for the tree: peace, faith, rejoice and believe.

One joyous day!!!!!!! :snowwow:
